Thailand is located in the center of Southeast Asia's Indochinese peninsula with a population of 68 million. Besides, it is also the 50th largest country in the world and the 21st most populous country. Thailand‘s capital and main administrative center are in Bangkok.

Because of the influence of the monsoon, Thailand has two distinct rainy and dry seasons with an average annual temperature ranging from 22 degrees Celsius to 27 degrees Celsius. In general, the weather in Thailand is quite mild and comfortable for travel and study activities.

In addition, Thailand is also known as the "land of smiles" because of the ingenuity, courtesy in communication, and the special hospitality of the indigenous people.

With an extremely low cost of living and cultural diversity, a wide range of opportunities, along with a mild climate, this is the country of choice for many international students as the perfect destination for them.
